Moving on to the important topic of protections for whistleblowers, I thank my noble friend Lord Wills and the noble Baroness, Lady Kramer, for raising it and meeting me previously. I am sorry that my noble friend Lord Wills cannot be with us today. As my noble friend Lady Kennedy illustrated, NDAs and whistleblowers often go hand in hand. Whistleblowers play a key role in shining a light on wrongdoing in the workplace. They need confidence that they will be taken seriously and not poorly treated as a result of doing the right thing.
